The deranged owner of a remote hotel in the Louisiana swamps feeds his guests to a pet crocodile.
Sinekatalog’s take
Tobe Hooper's swamp-hotel horror follows a madman feeding guests to his crocodile. Lurid and stylised, with an artificial red-lit look, it is sleazy and rough but has a certain B-movie nightmare charm.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
